PSVR has a great amount of fantastic launch titles such as RIGS, Tumble VR, Until Dawn Rush of Blood, and more!

More VR games are coming out this year, especially in 2017 so go ahead and check out whats here now, it’s gonna be a big library to dive into. You cant currently pick up the PlayStation VR at Amazon until October 31st (it was available earlier, that’s how fast it’s selling out). There are varying results at retailers like Gamestop, Walmart, and Best Buy for example right now.
